Abstract

Abstract:

This Afterword takes stock of the antisocial thesis by reconsidering the significance of Jean Laplanche's influence on Leo Bersani's work. Emphasizing the distinctness of Laplanche's theory of sexuality, the essay differentiates among four positions in the antisocial thesis debate: Bersani's, Lee Edelman's, José Muñoz's, and Dean's own. Contending that the death drive does not exist as such, Dean argues that negation involves more than negativity and therefore should be understood not merely as destructive but also as creative. Discriminating among claims that have tended to become conflated, the essay connects Bersani's version of the antisocial thesis to his account of aesthetic subjectivity.

后记：同性恋理论中无法消除的反社会论题

摘要:这篇后记通过重新审视让-拉普兰什对利奥-贝尔萨尼著作的影响，对反社会论进行了总结。文章强调拉普兰什性理论的独特性，区分了反社会论争论中的四种立场：贝尔萨尼、李-埃德尔曼、何塞-穆尼奥斯和迪安自己的立场。迪安认为死亡驱动力本身并不存在，他认为否定不仅仅涉及否定性，因此不仅应被理解为破坏性的，也应被理解为创造性的。文章将贝尔萨尼版本的反社会论与他关于审美主体性的论述联系起来，对容易被混为一谈的主张进行了区分。
